Created attachment 199188 [details] Open the document, set the cursor in first field, move with tabulator to next field… Open the attached Writer document. Contains 2 fields. Position cursor into first field. Press tabulator. Cursor moves to second field, which is a pattern field. Cursor will be positioned at the right of the pattern. Input at this position is impossible. Expected behavior: Cursor should be moved to the left of the pattern. So you could directly start to input data. This behavior exists since start of LO. Have tested it with also with Version: 25.2.0.3 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: e1cf4a87eb02d755bce1a01209907ea5ddc8f069 CPU threads: 6; OS: Linux 6.4; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
The cursor moves to the right of the pattern, but entering data works fine.
(In reply to m_a_riosv from comment #1) > The cursor moves to the right of the pattern, but entering data works fine. When cursor is at the right of the pattern: What have you done? When I try to write anything the pattern will always be marked and nothing happens. I have to move the cursor to the left and start to input content. Expected: Cursor is set on the left and I could start to input content directly.
Might be a special Linux problem: https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/edit-and-literal-mask/117978

Created attachment 199206 [details] Video shows: I could only set cursor by mouse (or arrow left) to start input in pattern field. As we have discussed in ask.libreoffice there seems to be a difference between Windows and Linux. If it works in Linux as it works in Windows - no problem. While it doesn't work this way I have never used this form control.
